The Bay (Sea)of Cortez and Arizona don not get much activity until
later in the season (Aug-Sept). There is a semi permenant heat low
pressure area over the region due to the heat.

As far as Florida goes, you are correct. The rainy season has begun
with many areas reporting above normal rainfalls and this does lower
the SST's due to cumulus clouds and rainfall from convective
activity.
